So two ticket holders win $1.87M each  and one person wins $325k. Unless the winners represent a before picture on a diet ad how are they big?

Too me 1.87 million is big, but I guess it isn't BIG like a Mega or Powerball winner.

As long as Jeb Bush is governor (fortunately FL has term limits), FL is not joining a multi-state game. FL's next governor, who will take office next year, needs to allow the state to join Powerball.
